[color=c4df9b]"Hey!"[/color] Kohra cried out as Pompadour slammed into her. Rather than make any move to break her fall though, her arms instinctively went for the strap of her rucksack. The world seemed to move in slow motion for a moment as she twisted so that she would land on her shoulder, but then she felt her fall stop as the red-haired boy reached out to steady her. Her balance returned, Kohra returned the red-haired boy's apology with a simple nod of the head and watched the rest of the exchange with a modicum of interest.

Something about the way that nobles talked seemed strange to her. The way they used words seemed like the way the stood or walked. Neat, measured, and proper. Kohra didn't understand it. It wasn't as though she didn't understand the value of being polite, but she preferred to simply say what she meant and not mince words instead of treating conversation like an intricate dance.

She felt a smile spread across her face as the busty woman rejected Pompadour before walking away with that seductive walk she seemed to pull off so effortlessly. She snapped back to her current position as the towering young man addressed her.

[color=c4df9b]"Huh? Oh, yeah, I'm fine. Nice work on those idiots back there."[/color] she said, giving him a playful punch on the arm before returning her gaze to the hall leading further into the colosseum.

[color=c4df9b]"She could've had him eating out of her hand."[/color], Kohra said smiling, [color=c4df9b]"Just seems like a wasted opportunity to have a stupid noble on a leash. Anyway, yeah, I'd like to get a spot with a good view"[/color], she said, matching the tall boy's stride as best she could.

[color=c4df9b]"It's Kohra, by the way"[/color], she said, holding a hand out for the tall boy to shake.

Maybe today wasn't going to be so bad after all.
